AC632LFUVC PCR Workstation - Advanced Technology for PCR Applications
The AC632LFUVC by AirClean Systems stands as a benchmark for PCR workstations, combining cutting-edge technology with user-centered design to provide an unparalleled environment for nucleic acid preparation and amplification. With dimensions of 32 inches in width, 30 inches in height, and 24 inches in depth, this workstation optimizes workspace without compromising functionality. Designed primarily for indoor use, the workstation is engineered to perform efficiently even at altitudes up to 2000 meters, with humidity levels of 80% maximum at 31°C, decreasing linearly to 50% at 40°C.
At the heart of the AC632LFUVC is the UVTect™ microprocessor-driven control system. This innovative technology allows operators to maintain a Class 100 clean workspace. The workstation employs a high-performance filtration system, including a pre-filter and HEPA filter, to eliminate airborne contaminants effectively. With a volume of filtered air reaching 200 CFM and a linear face velocity of 50 FPM, the AC632LFUVC ensures consistent airflow, critical for sensitive PCR procedures.
The design features variable speed blower control, enabling users to adjust airflow according to specific application needs. This flexibility is particularly beneficial in varying laboratory environments, where operational demands may shift. The audible and visual alarms incorporated into the UVTect™ system provide timely alerts regarding filter conditions, ensuring that users are promptly informed of any maintenance requirements.
Another standout feature of the AC632LFUVC is its short-wave UV light capability, emitting at 254 nm. This feature is crucial for destroying contaminating DNA and RNA quickly—typically within minutes. The workstation's UV bulbs have a defined useful life of 1000 hours, and the UVTect™ Controller diligently tracks the usage hours, alerting users when bulb replacement is necessary. This automated monitoring helps laboratories maintain optimal performance and safety levels.
Constructed with high-quality materials, the AC632LFUVC combines structural polypropylene for the base with Lexan™ polycarbonate for the front panel and sides, ensuring durability and resistance to chemicals commonly found in laboratory settings. The top is made from ABS, providing a smooth and easy-to-clean surface for added convenience.
In addition to its impressive operational features, the AC632LFUVC workstation offers flexibility in installation with Category II installation requirements and Pollution Degree 2 classification, making it suitable for a variety of laboratory environments. It operates on electrical inputs of either 110VAC at 60 Hz or 230VAC at 50 Hz, with a power consumption of 150W.
For enhanced mobility, the workstation can be equipped with an optional cart featuring two locking wheels, facilitating easy relocation within the laboratory space. This cart measures 32 inches in length, 24 inches in width, and 34 inches in height, providing a stable base for the workstation.
The AC632LFUVC by AirClean Systems represents a superior solution for laboratories engaged in PCR applications, offering robust construction, advanced air filtration, and precise environmental controls that ensure the integrity of sensitive experiments. By investing in this workstation, laboratories can enhance their operational efficiency and safeguard against contamination, allowing scientists to focus on groundbreaking research with confidence.
